"Easy to Use but Lacks Certain Features"
What do you like best about TaxJar?

It is a very simple platform, the interface is user friendly, and allows you to get things done fairly fast. They are constantly updating it with new features, and they have easy to follow tutorials when you want to get things down by yourself. The interface is pretty easy to handle without much room for doubt or questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TaxJar?

It does not allow for customization to the extent needed. Not all businesses are subject to the same sales tax rules in every states. They don't have options to exclude yourself from certain taxes like the B&O tax in WA when using their automatic filing system. Until recently you could not change if shipping was taxable or not based on your particular business situation.

They also don't fully integrate with Shopify, meaning they can take the information from Shopify, but they are not the ones calculating the sales tax at checkout, Shopify does, and Shopify does wrong a lot because they use zip codes instead of addresses. Also, when doing refunds, more often than not tax jar records them wrongly, so I have to download the file, fix it manually, and re upload it. Not very friendly. Also, the refund ID is different than the transaction ID which makes it harder to find the original transaction to then go to Shopify and see how the refund was done.

Their customer service is good but slow, too slow sometimes given that some things are tax sensitive.

They only solve one issue of the problem, calculating taxes right, but the other half, having the filing done correctly, I can´t do it, because their system makes me over pay for taxes due to the lack of customization and exemptions I can apply if I file on my own.

"Excellent sales tax solution"
What do you like best about TaxJar?

TaxJar saves me literally 20 or more hours per month, and takes away all the headaches and hassles associated with tracking sales tax in multiple states (we have nexus in 27 states) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TaxJar?

I honestly can't name any downsides. Avalara is the more commonly used system, but having used both extensively, I believe TaxJar is the better solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Our Lifeline for Tax Compliance"
What do you like best about TaxJar?

Tax Jar is very user-friendly and makes complying with remote-seller tax rules a breeze. It helps with out monthly state filing and also to track nexus to ensure we stay compliant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TaxJar?

I don't have many negatives - we still do our own filing with each state on a monthly basis, but Tax Jar seamlessly gives us the info we need to appropriately file with each state. The monthly reports are outlined in the way the state requests the information which is a plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
